Overview
Not a soft curl cream, this SheaMoisture gel gives firm, all day hold for slicked back styles, ponytails, buns and braids. Castor seed oil, shea butter and linseed oil add shine without alcohol.
Strong hold with shine and frizz control hold sleek styles neat from morning to night. Hold that firm can feel stiff for loose wash and go curls, and the fruity scent is strong.
Who it's for
People with curly or coily hair who style slicked back looks and want frizz under control. Those preferring soft, scrunchable curls or no fragrance should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Strong, all day hold
- Two jars in the pack
- Firm hold may feel stiff
- Sweet scent is strong
- Not for soft wash and go looks
Performance notes
Flaxseed derived gel forms a firm film as it dries, holding hair in place, while oils keep the film from looking dull or flaking. Applying to damp hair and brushing smooth gives the sleekest finish. More product means firmer hold.
